We used this hotel for our wedding block at the recommendation of our venue Unfortunately, we did not have a great experience hereEverything was fine while we were working with Lisa to get a contract in place

They advised we could start with 20 rooms at no financial obligation and they assured us we could add more as needed We decided to go that routeUnfortunately, once the contract was signed, we were handed off to Tiffany She was extremely curt over email and did not seem to have our best interest in mind We were not notified that the hotel was quickly booking up and our room block filled up and we were left with no rooms to add It would have been appreciated when the hotel was starting to fill up or they realized how many wedding blocks they had that weekend to ask us if we wanted to consider adding more rooms We were left having to explain to guests they needed to find somewhere else to stay and find a way to the venue on their own too, since we couldn’t have our shuttles running all around townIn addition, I requested an upgraded suite for the day of as I had 10 people getting ready the morning of the wedding They asked for my reservation confirmation number and assured me 90 days out that they would book me into a suite When I followed up 90 days out, they told me all the suites were gone and I was basically out of luck?? After explaining that I had 10 people that wouldn’t fit in the room, they offered a meeting room, which I said would work fine Then 2 weeks out from the wedding I emailed to confirm and they informed me I would have to pay $300 for the conference room + order food through the hotel (no outside food?? I have never heard of that being the case in a hotel) Utterly ridiculous so I was then left scrambling last minute to find somewhere else to get ready because that additional cost wasn’t in my budget and I had to re-coordinate all my vendors for the morning of Literally no sympathy from them eitherIn addition, the breakfast was $26/day which is absolutely insane and some of my guests told me it was disgusting The only positive was that the front desk staff was polite and the bar space worked well for an after-partyI would not recommend that you use this hotel for a wedding block at all

Front desk was awfully rude when checking in There was an issue not willing at all to help resolve Terrible attitudes

Here for my brother’s wedding, I think we have over 8 rooms for our family in total Lot of money being spent Our room was filthy and there was no hand soap and the shower filled up daily The front desk staff couldn’t care less Just disgust The attitude in this place is absolutely terrible from the front desk to the manager of the bar Never have I ever been so disgusted I know our party was easy 20k spent in a weekend I won’t spend another penny at a Marriot ever Unprofessional Was charged for somebody else’s meal and drinks Confronted the server she was more than rude The bar manager then shut down the bar Telling the drunk crowds of 2 wedding party’s it was my fault the bar had been shut down My mother asked the man his name and he said King Petty You can disrespect me all you want The moment the bar manager acted disgustingly towards my mother That was a wrap Never would I ever recommend this hotel I was never reimbursed for anything Nor did I ask to be We just wanted to leave as soon as possible

Meghan Tharp

We stayed for 2 nights at this Marriot and were totally impressed The entire staff we encountered was absolutely fantastic The best I have ever experienced in any hotel I have gone to

The staff was friendly, went above and beyond to be helpful and accommodating in all situations and they did it all with a smile each and every time It wasn’t just one specific person or shift, it was all of them during our stay It was top notch customer service from check in to check outThe hotel itself is nice and very clean! Our room was immaculate when arrived Which was wonderful The last thing you want to have to do when you arrive from a long trip is to clean/wipe down a poorly maintained room There was not one speck of dust anywhere It was great! The room is modern and updated and has a beautiful walk in shower with a sliding glass door There is different lighting options and plenty of outlets and a few USB ports to hold and charge electronics There is decent storage in the room and if you are on a upper level, the views aren’t half badDuring our stay, things were pretty quiet I have seen in other reviews that things were super noisy and I was a little worried about that This was not our personal experience at all and our room was directly next to the elevators While we were in our room, halls were quiet and there weren’t a lot of slamming doors We did occasionally hear people talk but it was usually brief as they were walking to and from their roomsWe dined at Legends pretty much the entire weekend while we were there The food is a bit pricey but there is a lot of it and it was delicious Our waitstaff was great! The burgers were cooked to order, the Boom Boom shrimp was flavorful, my daughter loved the giant pretzel Our waiter accommodated my 10 year old daughter who wanted a salad one night but with alterations to the base salad and it wasn’t even a problem There isn’t a children’s menu, which should be looked at for a future menu addition, even if it’s 2 or 3 choices There were several children in the hotel and we saw them dining in the restaurant as well so I am sure other parents were thinking the same thingWe used the pool/hot tub while we were there The pool area was clean and had fully stocked towels and several seating options I noticed there is a outdoor space (for warmer weather) to sunbathe on The hot tub was pretty much the only negative to our trip I was looking forward to sitting in a nice relaxing hot tub to sooth sore muscles but the water was not hot at all It was lukewarm at best There should be a timed heating option on the hot tub Similar to turning on the jets I was disappointed but it wasn’t a deal breaker and the positives of this Marriot definitely surpassed any minor negativesOverall our stay was enjoyable and a positive one We would stay at this Marriot again and also recommend it to friends and family who may travel to this area Kudos to the entire staff!

The cleanliness of the rooms were not up to par There were crumbs on the floor and in the drawers The side of the bed had some food stuck to it

Hair was on one of the towels And many updates and TLC needed within the suite We had to move from one suite to another because of how dirty the first one was Although the second was better, we still were not impressed given the condition The suites as a whole are set up very nice with all the amenities, however, they truly need cleaned THOROUGHLY and we shouldn’t have to see crumbs from previous guests from however long agoThe second room we stayed in was next to the boiler room Sporadically with no warning there was an extremely loud bang which would wake us up during the night and startle us out of our sleep It wasn’t a loud bang You could just ignore but it literally shook our entire room and scared us every time We alerted the front desk staff, but they just matter of factly said we were next to the boiler room and didn’t really seem concerned about us losing sleep/being startled and disrupted over the loud noise Honestly, that room shouldn’t even be available for stay Unless you’re one that has no startle reflex then the room shouldn’t even be given to guestsI had to come back a week later and was iffy on if the third room I had to stay in would be in the same condition as the other two and it was Crumby and needing some TLC Also the window was broken You may ask why did I come back to the same hotel? Well because of familiarity and I had to rush back to see a loved one in the ICU who was passing away No time to really search for a new hotel so I returned to this one, plus it’s very close to Einstein hospital I just dealt with it due to limited time to research other places to stay and other pressing matters to attend toI really wanted to like this hotel because of how the suit is set up but they should really work on making sure the simple things are taken care of like simply sweeping a floor or wiping off a counterThe staff is friendly and are sure to greet you every time you enter and leave They also changed our first room that was the dirtiest of the 3 without an issue but other than that the hotel itself could do better with the upkeep

Lin Mei

This place is perfect for a one-night wedding stay and World of Hyatt elite members will get wonderful treatments and upgrades I am just a Explorist yet I got upgraded to a two bedroom room upon arrival People here are extremely friendly and I received warm service during my stay

Breakfast is open and has wonderful options Great stay

Johnathon Mohr

The Hyatt House is a mid-level hotel meant for extended stays The suites are acceptable but they are showing their age You will be able to sleep, shower, and work semi-comfortably at the hotel

The internet is fast The main drawbacks are the space is used for a lot of party type events which can lead to loud drunken chaos, but it’s not a deal breaker as you really cannot hear it in your room There is no room service or restaurant, there is however a small bar where they may serve food but I cannot speak to that at this time There is also a pool, though I have never used it There also is not any assistance in dealing with luggage or valet parking There is however a very convenient lot and the staff do try their best to go above and beyond for you as best possible They are pet friendly as well

Our 2-night hotel stay in December 2021 was so lovely! The staff was very attentive and our requests were met both efficiently and thoroughly On our second night, we returned to the hotel tired and cold from having been out and about all day long As we made our way toward the elevators from the lobby, we were overwhelmed by the sweet aroma of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies — they had just put out a tray for hotel guests, complete with hot apple cider!! I mean, come on

It was just such an incredibly thoughtful gesture We also used the pool and hot tub on both nights of our stay and the whole pool area was kept clean and inviting The room itself was spacious with two double beds It was quite a wonderful and memorable stay for us (two adults and a small dog) Highly recommended!!

Arleen Stader

Very nice hotel We were there for a funeral memorial in 1 of their conference rooms Staff was courteous, cheerful but appropriate

Food was excellent It was special ordered as it was my brother’s favorite foods Starbucks coffee, yummyVery accommodating as more people showed up than expected Bathrooms were cleanWould recommend to others

Myrt

Stayed two nights for business Very comfortable and clean roomWe had a fire alarm go off the second night, but there was no emergency and things were taken care of promptly

(Would like to thank night auditor Blaine for his patience!)Staff is very friendly and accommodatingI do wish they’d have checked in and out more towels during the stayNo exhaust fans in the bathrooms Hence the fire alarm… From a steamy shower

The hotel was very nice Staff was always spot on and kind We spent nearly a week there so it needed to be good

Fridge could have been better and no microwave in the room was a bummer Many of options close to hotel for food & shopping Hotel bar & dining was very nice too Rooms were nicely updated Bathroom is very small (but nice) Not much can be done with the footprint Beds were great Temperature easy to control with nice fan option for white noise to sleep I cannot say enough nice things If I’m ever back in the area I’ll definitely utilize this hotel again

Stuart Walls

Situated in a business park, this hotel is a little isolated but is set in beautiful grounds Looks pretty new and well maintained The room was a good size, clean with a comfortable bed

The hotel is quite large with a bar, dining area and function rooms for events The staff were friendly Breakfast was good and we enjoyed a walk outside in the gardens There are a selection of cafes, restaurants and bars across the road which offers a bit of variety

Michael Gavlik

While we only just checked in, Kevin and Walter absolutely earned the 5 stars through their customer service They were accommodating, understanding, and extremely helpful and among the most pleasant staff I have ever had the pleasure of being assisted by The room is gorgeous and clean, the bed is fantastic, and it was absolutely the fantastic end we needed to what was originally a rough night!

This was about the BEST experience we’ve had in a hotel in a very long time The staff, everyone i met, was extremely friendly and helpful We called for a reservation that morning and spoke with the front desk person

When we arrived, he remembered our nameHe, and everybody working there were so attentive and friendly Even the maintenance man collecting trash joked around with me!Staying in the area, you’d be welcomed here If i am on the area again, I’m staying at this hotel

Reesey 44

Locations great Room was fine except tub spigot sticking out kind of far from the wall Also requested that room be serviced while we were out and it was not so we came back to a unservice room just grab some towels and went to bed and dealt with it

Otherwise the place is fine It’s a hotel room either book it or don’t you know what’s the big deal

Steven Howe

2 week stay in the hotel Ideally located for the mall (sorry walk but no obvious sidewalk) Decor felt a little tired in the hotel, like most that have had business affected by COVID, but the excellent staff were welcoming and very helpful and gave good advice on how to get into Philadelphia for the day (take the bus!)

Nice gym, good sized rooms

Staff is very friendly and provide good service The initial look and feel is nice, but the rooms can use an update They lack modern amenities like USB ports, room key activated lighting or even ample number of outlets

Furniture is a bit worn, but are kept respectable Bathroom shows its age and should be remodeled On a positive note, the location is convenient and the sound insulation between rooms is good Your neighbors can’t be heard through the walls

I work up the street twice a week but live about an hour and a half away So on occasions, I have to be there more frequently and I don’t want to drive back and forth!! Every time I’ve checked in, Katie from the front desk recognizes me and asks how I’m doing!! Makes me feel great!!Excellent staff Comfortable rooms

Enjoyable stays each and every time!!

Harnisha Patel

I would gave this place even a lower rating We hosted our big Indian wedding at this venue and it has been a terrible experience All our other vendors were amazing but this place was the worst

From the management to the front desk associate treated us in a disrespect and racist manner Biggest turnover with employees as well In the spam of 5 months, everyone was different including the management AC was not working for 2 days which they couldn’t seem to fix in all sleeping rooms The staff is not trained in hospitality service with their rude behavior If you are planning your big wedding then please think ten times before going with the management here They couldn’t refill even the basic necessity like water for our event There has been no change in action with complaints to the Sheraton from the management

Beyond Honest

Really nice hotel, the room was nice and fairly spacious, bathroom was very big However the water was ice cold, hot water took a very long time to kick in The heat was also not working well we came in exhausted from being on the road the room was freezing when we walked in and the thermostat was on 72

I kicked it up a few degrees, took a shower, still the vent blowing ice cold air, kicked it up a few more degrees and passed out Woke up a couple hours later and it was still freezing I literally had to kick this thing up to 84 degrees to actually feel some heat coming out Then it was like a sauna It definitely put a damper on my stay I wouldn’t expect that from a new hotel especially one of this caliber and $200 a night That’s something you would expect in a roadside dump

John Westwood

Nice hotel I feel like “The Alloy” focused their expenses and updates on the lobby/ dining area (which to be fair is beautiful) The rooms are nice as well with newer furnishings, but don’t quite match the elegance of the main entrance

Staff was very friendly and helpfulMy room was equipped with a mini fridge (which was great) However, the bathroom did not have a fan, which led to cloudy mirrors after showering I could sometimes hear other guests through the walls (but it was not overly bothersome)Parking was manageable There are many restaurants, coffee, and grocery stores nearby You cannot hear any highway noise from inside the rooms

Lucero Galvan

Beautifully remodeled hotel All the main areas, including rooms, had updated features and decor Note, that the only “outdated” area, IMO, was the bathroom – however still very nice and spacious

We received a warm cookie at check in, which we enjoyed in one of their outside seating areas, with the most comfortable couches The fully-stocked bar area had plenty of seating for drinking or collaborating with colleagues The best part was the gym It had all the needed machines and weights to have a fairly good workout They even have an area with ear phones in case you forgot your own All the machines seemed new, with TV workout interactions It’s one of the better hotels we’ve stayed on our work trip in Philly

J Ra John

This will be my second time coming to The Alloy, and it didn’t disappoint The staff upon check-in were amazing, beautiful, helpful, warm, and welcoming The Hotel itself, sets very elegantly on the property

The general entrance / commons, bar, and restaurant areas are so well-kept and look great The rooms are spacious, clean, updated, and comfortable I really have no complaints for The Alloy on this stay It was pleasant, and close to everything I needed to get to All major retail, and entertainment are within seconds, to a few minutes from the property I have now made this place a permanent consideration, for future leisure or business stops in the KOP area

Peter Benoliel

This cute 4 room Bed and Breakfast is locate very close to Main St in Manayunk where there are plenty of restaurants, shops and bars The room was very comfortable and clean and unique Mark was a great host, starting with confirmation of when we would check in, advising us on parking (which can be tough but I found a space close by), organizing breakfast time and showing us all the amenities that the Manayunk Chamber House had to offer

Pack light as this Guest House is in an older house with a narrow staircase and the rooms split between the second and third floors I would stay here again as the personal touch of good innkeepers beats the large format hotels

Tom Kissel

The Manayunk Chambers Guest House is a beautifully restored old house (check out the scrapbook in the main room) situated in the hills of Manayunk Our host, Mark, greeted us and filled us in on the history of the house and the local area We booked the City Room on the second floor, which is extremely comfortable, with a king cushy bed, seating, and its own separate bathroom with a shower and a soaking tub

There are no TVs or children, which was fine by us – on our 30th Anniversary, we appreciate peace and quiet The neighborhood is relatively quiet, as well I can’t say enough about the breakfasts! Mark is a former baker, and he still keeps his oven busy Each day we had an assortment of croissants, scones, and muffins, along with unlimited coffee and tea First day was a bowl of beautifully presented fruit, nuts and whipped cream, and next day was a fruit crepe – delicious! Mark is quite a conversationalist, and the breakfast chatter was very much appreciated I don’t think he could have done anything else to make our stay wonderful When in Manayunk, please consider the Manayunk Chambers Guest House!

Syeda

A bed and breakfast is only as great as it’s host and Mark is incredible! My partner and I had an amazing new years weekend at the Manayunk Chambers Guest house We love getting away from NYC especially on busy weekends such as new years The bed and breakfast is very beautiful and the ambience was calm and classy from the piano playing in the main room to the lovely dim lighting and stain glass lamps all over the house

There are three floors with guest rooms in each floor The rooms are all very beautifully designed and perfect for couples The bed in the Suite Heart room was super comfortable We were able to sleep in and have a wonderful European continental breakfast in the morning Mark’s homemade pastries are absolutely delicious! He is a wonderful host who provides anything you need The main room has wine, beer, water, coffees, cappuccinos snacks and even games for guests One thing to note is the parking in the area is very difficult due to the tight roads and the blocks are hill like so youll definitely get a work out each time you plan to go out The area down the block has a lot of different restaurants and shops and were beautifully decorated with lights for the holiday season Nearby there’s also many hiking trails that are worth visiting especially if you’re in the area for the fall We will definitely be returning soon!

Our stay here a was awesome! The rooms are clean and spacious The toilet and shower were in a separate room from the sink and mirror which was a big bonus when traveling with others (No waiting 😉!)A hot Breakfast is a must for me and it is extra here depending on what you get, but the cook it for you and bring it out to your table

Great place and very reasonable rates!

Chris Kelley

I will not stay at this Courtyard again, and I am a dedicated Marriott customer First room I had smelled like mold and dirt, front desk issued another room The bed was unformfortable, worn, but seemed to be clean

However the sheets of reused plywood sticking out from under the mattress was concerning Overall the rooms are dated and are in need of a full renovation The lobby was nicely done

My wife and I have stayed at an AKA 5 or 6 times, the last 3 being at this location at University City in Philly We’ve obviously enjoyed our stays because we keep coming back This review is specifically about the exceptionally friendly and helpful staff

Kudos to local management This high quality staff doesn’t just happen It’s hiring the best people and training them to make their guests feel welcome 5 stars for staff on 28, at desk and management!

Grace G.

The stay was wonderful The kids enjoyed the pool and movie room, and I enjoyed the view/cleanliness of our suite EJ was AMAZING! He constantly checked on us and made sure we had a great stay

He prepared the movie room, brought snacks and water, brought towels to the pool, answered all questions I mean he went above and beyond, the customer service was great Overall a great stay!

Daiana Lucisano

We have stayed in room 3524 for 10 days and there were some problems, but the staff took care of everything with kindness and professionalism I am grateful to the general manager Sharon Bell, the sales manager Carla Caboni and the chief engineer Robert: they took care of all the problems and offered to make up for them Now we moved to an apartment in AKA and everything is fine and perfectly furnished thanks to the helpful staff that works here

Rooms and apartments are beautiful and have a stunning view over Philly’s skyline I highly recommend this place- Mizio & Daiana

The rooms are dated (if that’s important to you), but mostly my concern is carpet which was very dated and felt dirty (i didn’t get close enough to thoroughly inspect, just wear your flip flops and it’s fine) The AC and fridge were both pretty loud but just white noise so that didn’t bother us too muchFront desk people were all very nice and answered any questions we had

Pool looked clean but we didn’t get a chance to use it Breakfast room is small (i guess not everyone eats their free breakfast)Neighborhood: i mean the mall is in view which also means lots of restaurants and next door is dominoes which for us was a great option for a late dinner Not a great place to walk around since you’re surrounded by main roads but we managed a stroll and it felt pretty safe

This hotel was actually so awful I came here on a school trip and we got our room and it wasn’t cleaned since the last stay, my classmates rooms weren’t cleaned either The beds were messy and the bathroom was gross

We ended up getting new rooms and the sheets didn’t fit the bed The toilet wouldn’t flush and numerous other rooms had plumbing issues too The downstairs wasn’t being used because there was water damage in the basement There weren’t many breakfast options either The bedding was practically just sheets, it gave off creepy vibes and a 13 year old was hit on by another person staying here The only reason I’m putting 2 stars and not one is because the pool was great, and the outside was pretty cool I do NOT recommend!!!

Great location Outdated decor/ rooms Extremely dirty pool with no running filter and hardly any chlorine

Friendly employees Front desk does not answer the phones though Breakfast was very simple So not try the Blueberry waffle mix, it’s awful Bed was comfortable Rooms did not receive service Stains on shear curtains No dark curtains to block out lightThere are other hotels in the same area that are probably much better

Hotel was decorated in a library decor Front desk staff was friendly Needed a code to get on elevator

Down side was NO fridge, microwave or coffee maker in room Also, NO vending machines or ice makersIf ice was needed you need to go to the restaurant when it was open King room was comfortable Loved the glass walk in shower

-no fridge (except a beat up one we found in the hallway the cleaning staff let us take in our room

yes, I’m 100% serious)-Mac couldn’t connect to wifi until I took it out of my room down to the lobby It was clear that management is aware of this problem, staff are frazzled from having to deal with it, and there is no plan to fix it We were told that it is Apple’s fault, not theirs Like other hotels haven’t figured out how to accommodate Macs-checked us into the wrong room-no free breakfast-free morning coffee is always empty with no one around to refillYes it’s clean, and the poor management gives the staff many opportunities to be friendly How is that adding up to an average rating of 46? I am baffled

I am not sure where all the exceptional, 10/10 reviews come from on this hotel, but we did not have a 10/10 experience Not sure if the other rooms may have been any better, but our room was in terrible condition – dirty, dusty and had trash left from previous occupants (plate of partially eaten pizza slices under the bed, random medication/pill and other trash on the floor), mold and dust in the bathroom See included photos

Check-in and checkout were easy, but the attendant always had to be called from the back room Pool and hot tub were good, but they were always short on towels, so they gave us some regular hotel room towels I can’t give this place more than one star based on our experience for the cost of the hotel We’ve stayed in much cheaper places that were a lot cleaner than this We had another family in our group who had to have the hotel switch rooms because of weird stains on the bed Definitely won’t stay here again It’s weird because the other reviews mention the lack of availability of the pool as only negative, but that was really the only positive experience at this hotel, based on price paid for the stay

An overall fair experienceTo start, I had reserved a king room a few weeks ago On arrival at 5:30pm, was informed that no kings were available

We were given the option of taking an immediately available double queen or waiting for the king We had a concert to get to in less than two hours so we opted for the double queenThe room was at least very quiet, but it really looked pretty worn See the pics below for the quite worn desk chair, rusty hardware on the furniture and what I can only assume was a missing shower caddy? on the shower wall leaving a residue of adhesive Felt more like a two star motel rather than a 3 star hotel roomThe lobby area was quite nice however, and they serve cookies at night in the lobby, which is a “sweet” touch The hotel is also within walking distance of a Target and several chain restaurants which was convenientOverall, relatively affordable but I probably would not stay again unless I had a worse experience at a nearby hotel

Don’t forget to use ʜoᴛᴇʟʙoʟʟʏᴄᴏm when booking any stay This web site will compare countless booking websites and normally will have prices a lot cheaper compared to others! You’re welcome :)! This place is one of the most well known in the area

I have been coming here for a long time If you choose this place you definitely won’t regret itBeautiful hotel, well kept, clean, excellent service, great location for what I went for will definitely stay again if I ever visit Philadelphia again Employees very attentive and friendly

ROOM: I was extremely happy with the room accommodations I got a 2x queen bed room Lots of lighting, desk / counter space, and closet space

Mini fridge actually got coldSERVICE: There was no room service unfortunately the weekend i stayed There was one housekeeping staff that was extremely rude and attempted to literally walk through me near the elevators as i rounded a corner It was a moment of a game of “chicken” The service staff in the lobby at the reception and at the breakfast were excellentLOCATION: very safe, with frequent night patrols by hotel security, which i appreciated The hotel is tucked away in an area with nice grass and trees Only minor downside is that it is not in center city itselfOVERALL: would return

I was on a business trip and to my luck was dropped off at a Marriott but 10 mins away from this one by car I had no way of getting to the hotel since I did not have a car, so I called them to inform them of what happened The lady on the phone stated she would cancel my reservation and submit for a refund and that I don’t get charged a cancellation fee

But most likely I would get a refund but get charged a cancellation fee since it was day of I had no other option since I did not have a car to get there and also I am from out of town and was only staying for one night I received an email the next day in the after noon by the general manager (Amberlyn) who stayed that since I canceled my reservation last minute and they could not resale the room they were still going to charge me for a stay Did not even ask me any background questions to try and understand why I did not make it that day Ever since that day I have emailed her and “Customer Care” numerous times and I even called to speak to a supervisor and have heard back from no one You think that since I stayed at a Marriott and I am a new member of there rewards club/group what ever its called they would accommodate me this one time Since this was my first time trying to stay at there hotel and it did not work out Your jobs are supposed to be around Customer Care and right know your not showing that at all I am not asking for anything crazy or treating anyone bad I just want a refund for a stay that I was unable to complete You’re hotel has a lot of money refunding me won’t break your bank

The hotel was swapping out all of the mattresses I appreciate the effort but it would’ve been nice to know when I booked The parking lot was a maze, full of mattresses and massive trucks cutting off whole sections and taking up tons of parking spots

One day my wife and I came home from lunch to people in our room with our door wide open We were given no warning, at no point were we asked for permission She had her wallet and personal items in the room Blatant disregard for us and our privacy 100% will never be staying here again nor will I be recommending it to anyone I’d give zero stars if that was an option

Walls are thin We were their for a sports tournament, their were tons of kids running around late into the night We could hear everything

Bar downstairs had outdoor seating and we could hear that until 2am I would say get your room on the opposite side of the bar Breakfast time came and parents allowed the children to run and play all around the food Staff was able to refill food quick enough for all the guestThe hotel staff itself was professional and friendly The room was clean and the bed was comfortable The pool wasn’t available

Mike Ober

Room was good Breakfast was good This hotel isn’t close to other dining so be ready to drive a few minutes to dining

The big, and only real issue is that you get zero maid service unless you stay for five days or more For towels and linens this makes a lot of sense However, it also means they don’t empty the trash or check the toilet paper stock At the price of a SpringHill Suites hotel, this takes them from a five star to a one star

John Hutzenbuhler

Patricia at front desk did an amazing job! Rest of stay experience very poor Confirmed floor was not available (confirmed by chat room day of stay) Light in bathroom not working and took 2 days to fix

No soap in shower Room smelled Other than Patricia, poor customer service from front desk Of course, no room cleaning due to staffing shortage or whatever reason Hotel can control all of these issues – maintenance, proper cleaning, etc Also preferred status at Hilton receive water – not at Marriott anymore? Normally, I enjoy Marriott and have great experiences – this was an exception
